Security doors, gates and bars in Pretoria
Pretoria has a large stock of older brick houses in suburbs such as Waterkloof, Brooklyn and Arcadia, many with steel window frames and wooden front doors that take a trellis door or a slamlock gate well. Newer townhouse complexes and flats use aluminium windows, where clear bars or bars fixed inside the frame are popular. Smallholdings and farms to the east and north often need longer gates and fenced-in yards, and shops along the main routes use heavy bars and steel doors. Fabricators work from industrial areas such as Silverton, Waltloo and Pretoria West and cover most of Tshwane. Hot, dry summers and afternoon storms are tough on poor paint.

Typical Xpanda-style security gates requests in the area come from:
- Houses: an expanding gate over a patio or back door that folds away in the day
- Townhouses and complexes: a light gate over the sliding door in a colour the complex allows
- Flats and apartments: a gate across the balcony door or front passage when swing room is tight
- Farms and smallholdings: a quick option for store rooms and outbuilding doors that need ventilation
- Shops and restaurants: a wide pull-across gate over the shopfront that folds to the side
- Factories and warehouses: internal pull gates for tool stores, with a stronger gate outside
- Schools, clinics and churches: inside gates for store rooms and offices, kept off escape routes
Local tips for Pretoria
In Pretoria, what people fit most is this: slamlock and trellis doors on houses, clear bars in complexes, gates on smallholdings. Makers and installers: fabricators in Silverton, Waltloo and Pretoria West. A useful tip: older steel window frames: ask how the bars will be fixed to the frame.
Xpanda Security Gates are usually made in pressed steel or aluminium channels and links, openings up to about 3,000 x 2,400 mm, with face-mounted lock box on the leading edge and white, black or brown powder coat. Locally: hot sun and afternoon storms: a good powder coat lasts longer than plain paint.
